Have you tried converting the files to something that can be played on the phone?
Download the Divx player for windows mobile. I believe that does Mpeg4 files. You can find it by looking on google and searching "divix player windows mobile", or something like that.

i just tried divx player and the same problem, the video plays but the sound doesnt. and its not an old silent movie lol

well TCPMP has worked well for me in the past. You cannot convert it on your computer to a different format and then transfer it?

Is there a better way to Play Videos on Dash
I tried alot of different movies and music videos but they don't show to good.. So I was wondering is there anyway to get movie or videos playing better on the Dash?? Is there a app or something I could use to play movies better?? I mean I tried .wmv, .avi, .3gp and none of they all played pretty lousy...
Besides TCPMP because I tried installing it and it said "Unsuccessful because it wasn't made for my phone" and I don't know if it was because I used the wrong one or what..
Thanks In Advance...

Try istalling the TCPMP/Player in my YouYube WizzStar thread, the download is located in post # 1, that one is beefed up a little and should give you very good video resolution quality. Install it too your SD card. It will work on the Dash, I know that already! Let me know how things work out for you.......!

Now I was wondering do you what format would play best with it (meaning settings for a video file)????
Thanks again
what is the better video format and size for the s620 ?
and what software should i use ?
help please
Mp4 is the best in terms of quality, but Mp4 videos take up more space.

.mp4 is the best to use to recode good quality films for dash @ 320 x 240, just keep the bitrate low, mono sound about 92kbps will keep the size down.
You can use SUPER © http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html it's free.
I use A-One FLV to AVI as i use it for YouTube but will encode any file to .mp4.
Consider using 3gp format. The quality is good and the file size is small. There are a number of 3gp converters available.
thanks
im interested in quality and speed not the mb
thanks guys
well. i converted a video with that program "super" to mp4 and it works very crapy and slow
can somewone please tell me exact the format file,video format,sound format,rezolution exactly for the videos to convert ?

The MB will play a big factor in quality as the larger the file the harder it is for the Dash to read the ammount of data to frames.
Anyway .mp4 is the best mobile codec.
320 x 240
Lower the bitrate and keep the fps the same as original source.
Already commented on sound.
Oc'in your device will also help with playback and having a good media player on Dash?

im using windows media player

Well don't use a frog but TCPMP will do it, you will want your vid's in .mp4 to which there is loads of software available for mobile conversion online Super © is a free one.
The trick is to keep the file size down you can do this via mono sound as the speaker on phone is mono and keep the bitrate down and also keeping the bitrate down on the video.
Hope this helps it is covered in other threadz on here.
there is an alternative , divx mobile . http://www.divx.com/mobile/requirements.php
average size when using divx converter for a full length movie is ~ 200 - 250 mb.
using it on my htc s621 , flashed with kavana's 6.1 rom .

RMVB on Excalibur. Does it work?

I´ve tried this (a guide posted) and this (Mplayer smartphone port).
Unfortunately, none of them worked. So.. is it really possible to watch RMVB files? If someone says so and points me to the right direction, I´ll keep Dexter and Supernatural updated!
Regards

Not sure about playing RMVB but you could always convert on computer to MP4 as Dexter is worth the conversion time
Will look into RMVB player but think above will be option.

To be honest never converted an RMVB as back in the day there was no way except silly long ways, i stick to AVI as have an hardware Divx player, will have a look into Xilisoft as then that would be one less thing to think about
"The smiley shouldn't be formated" lol

Yes... Xilisoft is the one... However, let me say that playback experience is by far much better in Coreplayer than Mediaplayer. I haven´t tried TCPMP, so, I don´t know if it works on it. (I just thought that this is one less soft to install)
Anyway.. about my initial issue, NO! Excalibur can´t play RMVB. But it can play Mp4 (I should know it...but... anyway).
Once it can play Mp4, use Xilisoft video converter and Coreplayer to watch it! Or... if you own one... use iPod to watch videos on the go!

Yep CorePlayer should be defacto video player for everyone have not found anything come close as TCPMP was the early version of CorePlayer "Freeware" the codecs are old and not as refined as CorePlayer, WMP just sux @ doing anything, thanks for the info regards Xillisoft what's it like for AVI to MP4 quality wise?

video playback.... choppy

I tried putting a small video clip on my memory card. When I open it it plays like it's in slow motion, and it's really choppy. The audio for the clip plays in normal speed.
so a few questions...
Is there a best format of video files for my excalibur?
Is there mabey a player better than windows media player?
I hacked my psp a few years back. I was able to download full movies and watch them on it. I may be asking too much... but I'm wondering if it's possible to do this with my phone.
when I'm at work with my phone in my hand the ol' boss doesn't mind. Of course when I'm hanging on to a game system.... the **** hit's the fan!
Here you are a free bit of software that can recode videos http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html download link @ bottom there is lot's of speal...
I use A-One FLV to AVI but it's not free, there is alot of software that can do it.
I recomended SUPER as i know lots of peeps use it, so set the resolution 320x240 keep bitrate down on video larger it is larger output file, audio can be set to mono and again about 64kbit/s and still be fine, .mp4 is a good quality for Mobile video or for even more compression .3gp
Re: Player TCPMP "to which is free" or CorePlayer "the pay version"
I've tried downloading TCPMP. When I try installing it I get a message that the install package isn't designed for my device.
this is where I'm downloading it from.

Is there a different version that I need to use?

Related question... How do I watch the phone-recorded videos on my PC after I pull them over via ActiveSync? I tried converting them with Handbreak but they are not recognized as a compatible format.

Try VLC Media Player you will want codecs CCCP is XP & Vista compatable "if you have any other codec packs installed then do not install"
well i actually wanted to start a mobile movie thread
like..i will be encodeing movies for mobiles..which will play without a hitch...and patches...
and uploading them on rapidshare or megaupload..
sooo what say??
what happens if you run out of battery in the middle of a movie, can you fastforward it afterwards and in an "easy" way? If it's possible, it depends on the video format, video player or both?

[Q] Playing 720p .mp4 vids on the GNex

Hey guys!
I've had my Galaxy Nexus for a couple days now, and I was thinking of loading it up with some movies I have at home. The problem is, I've ripped the movies in 720p .mp4 format on my Mac - but it won't play with the stock ICS player.. Rock Player works sort of, it shows video but it doesn't hide the on-screen buttons.
Rip details is: 720p h.264, AAC audio
Any ideas?

Yeah, stock gallery doesnt play wide range of codecs yet so I rely on MX player instead. But having the same problem tho about the on screen buttons :/
I find that the "dice" player from android market plays more stuff than any thing i can get straight .mkv files running perfect on my GN it is a paid app for the full version but im happy with it.

Do you have the stay-on-screen-buttons problem on Dice Player?
The only player that plays movies in full screen is Dice Player....but it has been removed from the market.
Have you tried Mobo Player? Works great on my Nexus S with mkv/mp4/whatever.

It needs some codec (which cannot find in market) to download first in order to use it...
Make sure you use the right mp4 level I think level 4 is the Max android will recognize all my encodes work so far

I'm using MX video player and MX Video Player CODEC.
Doubletwist is also very good.
All available from the market and have had no issues playing anything so far.

Cool, I forgot about Doubletwist, thanks.
I currently use QQPlayer, Diceplayer premium and Rockplayer. They all seem to play some files and not others.
I tried Moboplayer but ran into trouble installing the codec during the install process (even when installing 'offline')

Update - I just tried Doubleplayer, and while it plays everything it stuggles at times. More jerky (lower frame rate?) than QQPlayer.
I'd be happy with QQPlayer but the seek doesn't play nice. So if I miss something I have to start the video from scratch. And like I say, Dice, Mobo, Rockplayer and Realplayer (yes I was desperate) all appear to have various problems of their own.
I do recall VLC being released a year or so ago. But I guess it was pulled too?
I'd love to know if anyone has found a decent video app... (*I have a 4.5 hour daily commute into London!*)
Dice Player ftw!

Free MKV Media player

Hi,
any hint for a good media player that accepts most formats incl. MKV? Something like VLC.
Thanks

Not free, but http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/e...a-player/8441f98d-c8e7-4ee1-9c1a-6f08f46e51f3
VLC is also coming, you know... already available in the store on x86, they're working on the ARM port as well.
No idea when it'll get here, though. Could be tomorrow, could be in six months. Probably somewhere between those.

Hi
Files&Folders New works for me.
Hope for you too
All of the videos apps I've tried result in poor audio-video sync. The video seems to trail behind the audio by a few tenths of a second. It's quite distracting.
This isn't just MKVs- most of my videos are mp4 anyway, since I also want to play them to other devices that lack MKV support.
